  1. Up to 71 with the breaks of sun and just north of the storms that blew up in OCean contty
  2. Too bad we couldnt get 6-12 more hours of dry ahead of the front Saturday as some of the warmer spots could have approached 90, still it could be mid/upper 80s ahead of the front pending on clearing.
  3. Heaviest rainfall shifts to the center of the nation the next 7 days The majority of the forecasted rain for us is with the lingering showers Thu/FRi and Saturdays storms potential
  4. Yes there is an issue - i will delete. The list generated with errors. Thanks for the catch

  6. 62 / 61 cloudy some scattered light showers. Mainly light rain the next 36 hours and staying mostly cloudy, areas of fog, could be some breaks later or Friday afternoon. Saturday, pending on sun could push mid 80s or better in the warm spots ahead of the front which will bring the next round of showers/storms layer saturday, otherwise saturday looks to be the warmest day of the remainder of the month. Dry out Sunday - Wed with a nice stretch. heavy rains next week into the nations center as trough cuts off - GFS has ULL moving through Fri-Sat and clearing Sun/Mon(Memorial day), while the Euro has a linger cut off and trough through Mon and into the week of the 26th. Overall near normal close of the second half and outside of Saturday the 17th mainly below any heat / 80s criteria. Timing of the Upper level next week into the Memorial Day holiday weekend to be worked out. Beyond there building heat into the Rockies and west ejecting east to open next month - see if we can time a quick arrival here between the next trough - way out there.
  7. 1.51 in th bucket now slowing down
  8. Up to 0.90 here and counting.
  9. more scattered rain towards early afternoon
  10. The period May 23 - 28 should shave those positive departures a bit.
  11. Euro still not updating in the PSU Ewall site It is more similar to the Canadian in the Day 7-10 (May 21 - May 24)

  13. 59 / 57 cloudy and light rain. 0.75 in the bucket (so far). Clouds remain and rain should go more scattered today and being the coolest day of the period stuck in the low 60s. Warmer tomorrow with maybe some breaks of sun once the fog burns off and isolated showers and rain. SImilar and yet warmer on Friday with mainly cloudy skies and some scattered showers. Saturday not a wash out and the chance to the warmest day of the next 10 with enough sun could push low - mid 80s in the warm spots ahead of the storms coming with the cold front. Reprieve between the unesettled weather with a sunny dry Sunday - Wednesday - near normal. Next trough begins its cut off and memorial day misery Wed - Sun with more clouds, cool and rain. May be a top 5 ugly weekend. Trough clings to the east and any clinging to heat before June is all but evaporated - no fear for the fans of summer help could be on the way by the first week of next month with the building heat in the west ejecting east in the long range.
  14. Steady light - sheet rain has yielded 0.11 here in the last few hours.
  15. Brunt of the rain is forecast between 8PM tonight and 6AM THu morning 1.00 - 1.5. Then more scattered rains (0.15-0.50) Thu - Friday afternoon. Some storms/showers with the front Sat (0.10 - 0.30) Then dry Sun - Tue next week.
  16. Just some occasional light shower or light drizzle here.

  19. Curious if you run # 80 days M-A-M to compare with this.
  20. 64 / 61 here. Tue - Fri cloudy periods of showers and rain 1-2 inches of rain. Sat front brings next shot at storms/showers but not a washout. Sunday - Tuesday dry out and warm up could approach 80 in the warm spots. Longer range continues to have trough into the east with more unsettled weather. Outside chance to capture a 90 before the close of the month but chances were diminished with the latest forecasts output. Overall near normal / wetter 5/18 - 5/31
